Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true?

A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.


Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?

A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance ofvegetable products.


Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?

A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!


Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?

A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.


Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?

A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!


Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?

A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!!. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?


Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?

A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.


Q: Is chocolate bad for me?

A: Are you crazy? HELLO ...... Cocoa beans! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!


Q: Is swimming good for your figure?

A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.


Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?

A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!


Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.

And remember: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"

fist of the north star is THE manga series andy has been obsessed with. of course i got drawn into it as well. he spent hrm about $150 on a complete set of DVD of the TV series (released 1984-1987). it's about 150 episodes. it includes the first series and its sequel. the TV series is obviously not as concise as the movie but it's still fun to watch. here's a review of the movie - it might not be everyone's cup of tea. it's extremely violent but overall i enjoy the story line. i was so happy to finally obtain the theme song of the first TV series on mp3. you can listen to it on my radioblog and download it here.

oh yea the MOVIE SEQUEL titled "New Fist of the North Star" bites. don't get them!

this is accurate for me. weird.........

***Your Personality Profile***
You are pure, moral, and adaptable.
You tend to blend into your surroundings.
Shy on the outside, you're outspoken to your friends.

You believe that you live a virtuous life...
And you tend to judge others with a harsh eye.
As a result, people tend to crave your approval.

just got this from a forward

--------------------
This may be a first...

A couple from Montana were out riding on the range, he with his rifle and she (fortunately) with her camera. Their dogs always followed them, but on this occasion a Mountain Lion decided that he wanted to stalk the dogs (you'll see the dogs in the background watching). Very, very bad decision...

The hunter got off the mule with his rifle and decided to shoot in the air to scare away the lion, but before he could get off a shot the lion charged in and decided he wanted a piece of those dogs. With that, the mule took off and decided he wanted a piece of that lion. That's when all hell broke loose... for the lion.

As the lion approached the dogs the mule snatched him up by the tail and started whirling him around. Banging its head on the ground on every pass. Then he dropped it, stomped on it and held it to the ground by the throat. The mule then got down on his knees and bit the thing all over a couple of dozen times to make sure it was dead, than whipped it into the air again, walked back over to the couple (that were stunned in silence) and stood there ready to continue his ride... as if nothing had just happened.

Fortunately even though the hunter didn't get off a shot, his wife got off these 4...

How about dinner, a movie and then some drinks ?
Actually I'd rather just have the money.

I'm a photographer. I've been looking for a body with a face like yours.
I'm a plastic surgeon. I've been looking for a face like yours.

Hi... Didn't we go on a date once ? Or was it twice ?
Must've been once. I never make the same mistake twice.

How did you get to be so damn good-looking ?
I must've been given your share.

Your body must turn quite a few heads.
And your face must turn a lotta stomachs.

Come on, don't be shy. Ask me out.
OK... GET OUT !!!

I think I could make you very happy.
Why ? Are you leaving ?

What would ya say if I asked you to sleep with me ?
Nothing... I can't talk and laugh at the same time.

Can I have your name ?
Why ? Don't you already have one ?

Where have you been all my life ?
Hiding from you.

Valen Hsu offers you her terrific renditions of Qiong Yao theme classics!

The talented artist is set to launch her long awaited new release in the beginning of June and music lovers can look forward to her offbeat cover versions of 10 Qiong Yao theme classics including "Drowsy Moon & Drowsy Bird ", "Mutual Dependence of Farewell & Assembly" and "The Profound Court" among many others! Sandee Chen who already spectacularly teamed-up with Valen on their earlier merry collaboration "Blossom" took care of the production, while musical virtuoso Lee Yu Wan provided the stunning arrangement! Together they succeeded to breathe some Lounge flavor into the classic tunes that are known far and wide and provided them with brand new flair!

i just find this extremely amusing.

SO FAR:
the quarterback for Texan David Carr had been sacked 30 times this year alone (5 weeks) and Peyton Manning of Colts had been sacked 32 times LAST THREE YEARS COMBINED. LMAO

Colts is the only undefeated team and Texan is the only winless team this year.

I'm excited to announce the actress i really like Chen Hao has released her first album. I've seen Chen Hao act in one of my favorite series Fen Hong Nv Lang and some others.

"Chenhao, 25 yrs old Chinese mainland movie star from Qingdao, Shandong province has signed contract as a singer with Warner Bros. last year. The director of the record company accidentally heard she sang the song while recording the theme song of series drama ¡°Shuangxiangbao¡± and felt she has a unique voice. If trained, she can easily be a good singer. Later she test released a single "Hao xiang ai ni" the theme song of series drama "Shuang xiang bao". After the success her first full album was released on October 21, 2005."

The album is titled Chen Hao as well. It has 11 songs.

01 分手后的夜
02 你要懂事
03 以为爱
04 台风
05 爱上冒险
06 幸福魔力
07 女人爱自己
08 自己
09 付出
10 因为
11 风吹草动
